Why aren’t more people freaking out about the new Venezuelan labor law?
You know, the one that gives housewives/full-time mothers a pension— wages for housework?
It’s ONLY A HUGE VICTORY FOR FEMINISM, SOCIALISM, AND WOMEN OF COLOR. Not a big deal or anything. Tumblr is mysteriously silent about this.

you’ll have to forgive me if I’m a bit remiss in responding to asks & fanmail or anything
my international for-profit adoption agency is trying to get in touch with me personally with regards to my “birth mother and additional information about my background.”
which is funny because aside from the orphanages I was in and a necklace (yes I do have an orphan trinket, no I am not a TV trope), there has never been a scrap of background information to begin with. They won’t even say don’t even know where I was “abandoned” or how I was “found.”
I’ve cut off contact with those who should be cut off, changed my name, and travel around so much that the fact these White Savior(tm) wheelers & dealers have even managed to make me aware of their efforts is almost impressive. seriously what a fucking mindjob. my partner is lovely but bio spawned and cannot begin to grasp any of this.
I have never ever heard of an international adoptee being actively sought out by a major agency — it is ALWAYS the other way around. Someone PLEASE tell me if they’ve ever heard otherwise because I don’t know what the fuck is going on and what kind of shit these child peddlers may be trying to pull. But I am sure to be letting yall Bastards know soon as I find out…
Til then I guess. Stay glorious and eternally Ungrateful.

The Beauty Blender
i am confused as to why what is apparently “the best most revolutionary award winning beauty product” for several years running looks and surely feels like a cross between a chicken egg and nintendo Kirby

It’s also my adoption day today! Yayy!
What do you guys call your adoption day (my family calls it a “gotcha day”)?
Uhm
…
not being snarky, legitimately cannot summon response.

I love this kid.
He’s only in Prisoner of Azkaban, and he has two lines:
“It’s among the darkest omens in our world. It’s an omen… of death.”
and don’t forget, the ever popular:
“It’s like trying to catch smoke… Like trying to catch smoke with your bare hands.”
It’s like okay, kid, we don’t know who you are, but go ahead and say the two most intense lines in the entire movie. I guess that’s cool. Whatevs.
This is Bem, the only student to ever successfully change Houses. In the third movie, he’s a Gryffindor. In the fifth he magically becomes a Ravenclaw. Bow down to Bem for he holds all the knowledge.
BEM IS OUR KING.
It’s because after he uttered those two lines everyone was like ‘DAYUM BEM’ and he was sent to Dumbledore’s office and Dumbledore was like I boy you twoo fuckin’ wise to be a lion you gonna be a raven now. Get your ass in Ravenclaw.
and thats how it happened.
the end.
All hail Bem.
you can really tell we haven’t had a new book for over 5 years now can’t you?
